Patent EP-3236576-A1 (EP)
Inventor: SHEN GUOQIAO
IPC: H02M1/00
Filed: 2017-03-24
Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE 
     A voltage balance control device (1a) and a voltage balance control method for a flying-capacitor multilevel converter (1) are provided. A current direction forecasting unit (12) acquires a voltage change amount of any selected flying capacitor (C m ) of the flying-capacitor multilevel converter (1), and receives a feedback signal of two adjacent switch elements (Q m  and Q m+1 ) corresponding to the selected flying capacitor (C m ). A computing result is generated according to an average value or a cumulative value of the feedback signal in the adjusting period. After multiplication and/or division is performed on the voltage change amount and the computing result, the current direction can be forecasted according to the obtained sign. Consequently, the voltage balance of the flying capacitor (C 1  to C p ) of the flying-capacitor multilevel converter (1) can be achieved.

Abstract: A medical implant delivery system maintains an orientation between a guidewire lumen of an inner member of the system and a rapid-exchange port in an outer member. The medical device is disposed intermediate the inner and outer members and in friction or pressure-fit contact with the outer member. Once the guidewire lumen of the inner member and the rapid exchange port of the outer member are oriented, the friction or pressure-fit operates to maintain the orientation until deployment of the medical implant. Orientation is further maintained by a telescoping coupling of the guide wire lumen with the rapid exchange port.
